Q-drench Multi-Combination Drench for Sheep

Q-drench is a broad-spectrum multi-combination drench for sheep. It is ideal for strategic treatments, including weaning, pre-lambing, quarantine, primer and exit drenches, relying on the highest possible efficacy to achieve their aims. The formula contains four actives to target a wide range of internal parasites, including gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, tapeworms, mature and late immature liver flukes, nasal bots, and itch mites.
